VO.UllATU'EXKSS OF HOLDS
By a fiction of the et!j birds all t
sir.g.pra'tse, if they sing at all, to the !
greal Creator. , Of course, this sounds ;
will? and may have some moral found-J
ation ; but 1 can come as near proving y
thati catbird curses, and swears, and '
flings out all sorts of abusive cphithets
at its enemies, when angry, as any one
can " come, to establishing the song i
praise theory. How tliese little fel-
lows can fret, and ocold, and hiss, and '
imprecate yes, imprecate I I.et a
en )i row-liawk or screech-owl, or butch-
t'- bird, qo near one's nest, nfid, if you j
observe closely, your imagination must j
bo very torpid, indeed, if you connot
bear '-Jv.-n bit x .'"and all that, scatter
ed around pretty freely. I have seen
one fairly dance in ecstacy of anger
when nothing but a poor, little brown
lizard came near it. A pair of catbirds j
Lad their nest and young in a currant :
hedge of the garden belonging to a ;
fann-houe where I was lodsjin"' one :
Spring, and I used to amnsc myself by j
exciting the anger of the mother bird, i
To this I had only to hang a bit of red j
cloth near the nest in her absence, and !
await th3 result. No sooner would slie
return than such a twitteung and
fcipieaking, and scolding, would begin
as only a catbird could generate, and
when she found out that there was "no
fight'' in the rag, she would eye me
sitting at my window and mew trium
phantly as if she well knew who it was
had thus troubled her equanimty. A
war ot words or rather a war of
notes h a thing of frequent occurrence
between a catbird and common brown
thrush. L'ai ly in the morning through
the month of May they may be heard
screaming their resjeclive medleys at
the extreme pitch of their voices from
neighboring trees, each songster mali
ciously bent on drowning the others"
voice. Tho common barn yard cock
is given to a like ambition in the matter
of "crowing down" all compelitois.
Speaking of the brown thrush reminds
jne that 1 ought to record right here a
very singular combat, witnessed by
myself and brother, lietween one of
these gay singers and a blue jay (what
bird i not compelled to fight the lat
ter?), and in which the jay was finally
discomfited and beaten. We were in
the shade of a wild plum tiee on the
edge of a little glade. Near us was a
clump of sugar haw bushes, in one of
which we had discovered a brown
thrush's nest. The bird wa3 incuba
ting. A blue jay, flitting about on mis
chief intent, as, in fact, a blue jay al
ways is, happened to spy her, and im
mediately attacked her, driving her for
refuge into the thick, thorny foliage
above the nest. This seemed an easy
turn for the jay, which at once pie
pared to have a feast of the eggs. But
no sooner had it pert-Led on the rim of
the nest than the thrush, with a sav
age squall, plunged down from its hid
ing place, and struck it a heavy blow
on the Lack. The jay retreated in dis
order, but warily returned again when
nil seemed still. With infinite caution
in every movement, it hopped from
twig to twig, turning its crested head
this way and that, till it i cached the
nest. Again, with a shrill scream, the
thrush pounced from its hiding-place,
using its long, sharp peak for a sword
to slap the jay's exposed and defence
less back. Again and again the would
be robber fled and returned, each time
to get rougher usage; and finally, as
if utterly outdone, w ith rapidly-repeated
erics of "Ie-jay ! de jay ! de jay 1"
it flitted away into the depths of the
woods, to come no more. From Ap
j'leton, for lbrtiarj.
Ci'RE for Cataruii A writer in
the Chicago Trthtnu 'x "Home Depart
ment'' claims thut thj following is a
simple and immediate cure for colds
in t!ie head, sore throat, asthma, sore
nostrils, ttc. The remedy is crushed
culmb berries smoked in a pipe, emit
ting tho smoke through the nose ; after
tv few trials this will be easy to do. If
the noce is stopped up so that it is al
most impossible lo bieuthc, one pipe
full will make the head as clear as a
bell. Fni sore throat, asthma, bron
chitis, swallowing the smoke effects
immediate relief. It is the best remedy
in the world for offensive breath, and
will make the most foul breath, pure
nnd sweet. iSulien rs from tliat most
horrible disease, ulcerated catarrh, will
find this remedy to be unerpialcd, ami
a month's use will cure the most ob
ptinate case. A single trial will con
vince nny one. Kitting the uneiush-
cd berries is also good for sore throat i
and all bronchial complaints. After
smoking do not expose yourself to
cold air for at least fifteen minutes.
The tarries are perfectly harmless,
Sil'.vlu" 7li& ;
remedy. They can be procured at any
drugstore.
In "nNOLAND they are adopting a
ISprse slioe made of cowhide, and known
uatthe Yates shoe. It is composed of
trV?c thickness of cowhide compresstnl
jnlo a sUa l mould, and tlu-n pubjt-cted
toclu-mical preparation. It is claimed
for it that it lasts longer nr.d weighs
nlv one fourth as much as the com
mon iron shoe; that it will never cause
the lioof to split, nor have the lerst
injurious influence upon the foot. It
rt quires no calks ; even on aplmlt the
burse never- slips. Tlic shoe is so
claque that the horse s step -is lighter
iv to
and surer. It adheres so closely
the foot that neither dust nor
can penetrate between the shoe and the
lioof.

- In. the sixteenth c'euttiry, ibolomon
de Cans, a French engineer, proposed
to apply the classic jowcr of steam to
rise watery' and suggested a simple
i-appavatus for the purpose, consisting
of -a. boiler fixed over a fire, having a
stand-pipe fixef irj.t4.c top of the boiler,
its lower CHtrernity ' terminating near
the bottOmijt " tliferwatcr, and its upper
extremity'camed some height above
the tojV, of . the boiler. The elastic
force1 of '? team being raised by the fire,
passed Si pon the surface of the water,
and-caused a jet to descend from the
upper extremity of the pipe. The
same principle is described in a work
published 'by the Marquis of Worces
ter, in 1683; entitled "A Century of
the Naroe5,iand Scantlings of Invent
tions," in which he describes a method
of erniSlay-jiig the power of steam to

A Cure for Cancer Mr." David
Cu!ieppcr, of Russell county, Alaba

benefit, of the" afflicted, that he has
been citjped of cancer by the use of the
following recipe,-and that he believes
it is an infallible -:retnedy for that
dreadful disease : Take equal quanti
ties of the roots of white ash, black
sumac, and fat lightwood or pine, and
boil them in water. until a strong tea
is made, and use jt forconstant drink
in place of water, tea,l coffee, milk or
any other beverage, and eat nothing
salt or greasy. Take new -tar and
simmer it-over a slow fire until it forms
a tough wax, and apply i in the shape
of a plaster to the cancer, over w hich
first sprinkle corrosive sublimate; the
plaster and corrosive sublimate to be
renewed every day or every other day,
as most convenient, the cancer to be
1pt dry. lf this "remedy is followed
j without regard to pain "or swelling,
.1 which will ' both be great, and all
stimulants Retained from, Mr. Culpep
per guarantees a perfect and speedy
cure. We give the recipe for what it is
worth, without knowing
its value.
